National Geographic National Parks Cookbook: Dishes Inspired By America's Great Outdoors

This cookbook contains 100 recipes inspired by the lodges, restaurants, and ingredients found across America's 63 national parks. From Acadia National Park's historic popovers first served in the 1890s to Grand Teton's chili, the collection showcases dishes from the National Park System's concession stands, lodges, and local favorites. Each recipe highlights the parks' unique character and regional ingredients. Examples include Shenandoah's Mile-High Blackberry Ice Cream Pie, Great Basin's breakfast burritos, Cuyahoga Valley's Trapp Family roasted chicken, Olympic's clam chowder, Zion's Navajo tacos, Death Valley's date-nut bread, the Badlands' griddled squash salad, Grand Canyon's blue corn pancakes, Hot Springs' beer cheese dip and smash burgers, and Saguaro's Sonoran hot dogs. The cookbook includes historical details about the heritage of each dish and the parks themselves.
